One for the boys!

We all love making floral cards and cards with cupcakes but I was very excited to see this Football stamp set in the new catalogue! With having 2 boys I have a fair amount of male birthday cards to make and this will do me nicely!
Evan is in fact going to a football party tomorrow and the birthday boy is a massive Leeds United fan hence the colours
I have done a usual Trifold card, I like doing this style for male cards. The background is stamped with the ball from Just Soccer and then onto my favourite element on this card, the boots!!!
I punched a hole in them and have tied them together with some linen thread. I wanted to make it look like they were hanging up with their laces like they used to be carried in the olden days!!!!!

Colour combo is Brilliant Blue, Yo Yo Yellow, WHite and Basic Black, this works well for Leeds fans and would work for Leeds Rhinos cards too (without the football!)

Right another busy day today, I got loads done yesterday and almost finished prepping for Wedding Fayre and even managed an hour and a half housework!!!!
Got to prep for tomorrows class tomorrow!!
